An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 4.10 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 6.20 m

below. Calculate the velocity (in m/s) of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water. (Assume that the eagle is flying in the +x-direction and that the +y-direction is up.)

Answer:

V=11.74m/s, 69.59°

Explanation:

From newtons equation of motion ,we know that

V^2 = u^2+2gh

for the rt

For the vertical component of the speed

Vy^2=V0^2+ 2gh

Vy= the final speed in the vertical axis

V0= initial speed, 0m/s

g= acceleration due to gravity 9.81m/s

h=height/distance between the eagle and the lake

Vy^2= 2*9.81*6.2

Vy =√121.644

Vy=11.02m/s

The resultant speed will be

V=(Vy^2+Vx^2)^0.5

V=(11.02^2+4.1^2)^0.5

V=137.7241^0.5

V=11.74m/s

Direction

Tan^-1(11.02/4.1)

β=69.59°

V=11.74m/s, 69.59°

Answer =11.74m/s, b°

Compute the mean and maximum velocities for a liquid with a flow rate of 20 L/min in a 1.5-in nominal diameter sanitary pipeline
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Mean velocity = 0.292 m/s

Maximum velocity = 0.584 m/s

The flow is laminar as Re = 229.2

Explanation:

D = 1.5 inches = 0.0381 m

Q = volumetric flow rate = 20 L/min = 0.000333 m³/s

Q = A × v

A = Cross sectional Area = πD²/4 = π(0.0381)²/4 = 0.00114 m²

v = average velocity

v = Q/A = 0.000333/0.00114 = 0.292 m/s

For flow in circular pipes, maximum velocity = 2 × average velocity = 2 × 0.292 = 0.584 m/s

To check if the flow is laminar or turbulent, we need its Reynolds number

Re = (ρvD)/μ

ρ = 1030 kg/m

v = 0.292 m/s

D = 1.5 inches = 0.0381 m

μ = 50 cP = 0.5 poise = 0.05 Pa.s

Re = (1030 × 0.292 × 0.0381)/0.05 = 229.2

For laminar flow, Re < 2100

For turbulent flow, Re > 4000

And 229.2 < 2100, hence, this flow is laminar.

A space probe is coasting through space at a steady speed of 100p feet per second. the booster rocket fires for 1/2 seconds so t
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Acceleration: 9800 ft/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is equal to the rate of change of velocity:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

For the space probe in this problem, we have:

u = 100 ft/s (initial velocity)

v = 5000 ft/s (final velocity)

t = 0.5 s (time taken)

Therefore, the acceleration is

a=\frac{5000-100}{0.5}=9800 ft/s^2

What is the difference between a meteorite and a asteroid?

What's the DiDifference Between Asteroids & Meteorites<span>By Karen S. Garvin, eHow Contributor</span>SharePrint this article<span>Asteroids can become meteorites if they fall to Earth.</span>Both asteroids and meteorites originate in outer space. Asteroids are small planet-like bodies that orbit the sun, and known as planetoids or minor planets. The asteroid belt that lies between Earth and Mars contains hundreds of thousands of these planetoids. Sometimes asteroids fall out of orbit and hit the Earth, and then they become meteorites. However, not all meteorites are asteroids, and meteorites may be from the Moon or another planet.<span>Other People Are ReadingThe Characteristics of Comets, Meteors & AsteroidsWhat Kind of Sediment Is a Piece of Meteorite?</span>AsteroidsAsteroids are small rocky bodies that orbit the sun. Between Mars and Jupiter is the asteroid belt, thought to be a planet that broke apart. Asteroids are inactive, which means they do not have ongoing geologic processes, such as plate tectonics or active volcanoes. An asteroid can become a meteorite if it escapes from orbit and collides with Earth.MeteoritesMeteorites are meteoroids that have impacted the Earth's surface. A meteorite may in fact originate as an asteroid, but meteorites can also come from outside of the solar system. These rocky extraterrestrials can be iron, iron compounds, or stone. Iron meteorites comprise only about 10 percent of all meteorites and contain nickel, which tells scientists they are from outer space.<span>Sponsored Links3D Ground/Earth ScannersGraphical Measuring Results. No Need For A Computer-Get A Quote Nowokm-emirates.com/GroundScanner</span>The Makeup of Asteroids and MeteoritesScientists once thought asteroids and meteorites consisted of the same materials: stone and iron compounds. However, spectral analyses showed a difference in the reflectance patterns between asteroids and meteorites. It turns out that space weathering, caused by the flow of high-energy ions and small particles, erodes the surface of an asteroid by vaporizing it, and then depositing a layer of film that makes the surface appear dark red. Common meteorites do not have this discoloration.Why Scientists Study AsteroidsScientists study the asteroid belt to gain an understanding of the formation of our solar system and its planets. Asteroids within the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter consist of melted minerals. Asteroids from the outer solar system tend to be carbon. The largest asteroid in our solar system is Ceres, which is 580 miles in diameter.The Asteroid Menace<span>Most asteroids occupy the asteroid belt and orbit the sun in an elliptical orbit. However, some follow different orbits that may bring them into close proximity to Earth. Some scientists believe an asteroid impact caused the extinction of the dinosaurs about 65 millions years ago. Some scientists worry that another asteroid could hit the Earth and wreak havoc on our planet.</span>fference Between an Asteroid and a Meteor?
